Winter Challenge 2024 - Flat Iron Corner Building - Tom Langford.

[ACL1504]

After spending two hours drawing and cutting the new wall section, I realized I cut it to the incorrect size.

You can see it doesn't fit the slab area.



So, back to drawing and cutting a newer wall section.

New wall on the left and the old new wall on the right.



Back in few, Pam is needing some 1:1 stuff taken care of.

The bottom layer was painted with the same yellow and the top layer in the Brunswick Green.





Window and stained glass will be installed next. In the next photo you can see how it will look.

I have blue painters tape holding them for now.



Done for today.

Today I finished cutting the four walls to the building. I started with the narrow wall over the end wall section.



I then turned it over and used the front wall as a guide for the correct placement of the two windows.

[ACL1504]

I cut the two window openings for the narrow wall and will cut rear and larger end wall windows later.

I also finished the details on the smaller end storefront wall.

[ACL1504]

The side end wall was placed next to the front wall. The top plate above the corbel columns needed to be trimmed to the correct angle.

In the nest photo you can see that I missed the angle on the shorter wall made an incorrect angle cut. 

[ACL1504]

The bad angle cut doesn't show in all the photos, but it is there.

[ACL1504]

It doesn't look to bad in this next photo.



I moved the wall away so you can see the odd angle.
